Configure SSH access to Fortinium host

Configure SSH access to Fortinium host

SUMMARY

A fortinium host is configured to only allow SSH access to Fortinium support.


RESOLUTION

To allow IP addresses or DNS names (will be resolved on every restart of the host service), you can set the following VARIABLE on the host (comma separated):
  1. ALLOW_SSH_FOR_IP = <ip>,<fqdn>,<cidr>
    e.g.
    ALLOW_SSH_FOR_IP="212.68.3.87,myhome.fortinium.net,57.8.197.62,192.168.10.0/24"
This will automatically remove access to Fortinium support.

To disallow any access, set the following VARIABLE on the host (comma separated):
  1. ALLOW_SSH_FOR_IP = NONE

To reset it, so that only Fortinium support can access it, remove the VARIABLE completely
